I have folders with many many files of various types. I'd like to make folders to sort the jpg, pdf, wmv, doc, (and so on) into, but how can I move a file type (such as .jpg) in mass? Doing it manually would take days to click click click...

what's md5? checksum?

if you do a "copy *.jpg c:\lumpedfiles\*.jpg" the copy command will prompt you if the files have the same name and if you want to overwrite it, but then you have same files in source directory you have to deal with.

You're probably better off using explorer, bring up 2 copies of it, one pointing at the source directory and one at the target directory (right mouse click on the start button --> explore) and manage the files that way. You can sort by extension, size, date, etec. You can also select one or multiples to copy, delete, cut, paste.
